I bought a new Rolleiflex 3,5F just as they ceased production. I still use it regularly, great camera. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tri-X isn't the same now as it was "back in the day". Kentmere 400 to me is like the old TriX. Â Punchy and a bit grainy. Â Bonus - it is cheap!

armadsen Posted October 19, 2022 Share #876 Â Posted October 19, 2022 Honestly, the only question I really want answered is whether it's actually a limited edition of 500. If it is, it's completely uninteresting (to me). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

armadsen Posted October 19, 2022 Share #878  Posted October 19, 2022 Also, £4,500.00 is more expensive than the MP, so that part of the rumor seems wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we cannot legally sell MP's anymore because of new laws with products with the button batteries. Leica AUS reps/ambassadors are in Wetzlar for this announcement so.
